This command is threadsafe.
RESOURCE_NAME(name16 | string | "string")
specifies a 16-character string that can be used to document and trace the
resource involved in suspend and resume processing. You cannot use register
notation to specify the address of the string.
name16
The name of the location where a 16-byte value is stored.
string A string of characters without intervening blanks; if it is not 16 bytes
long, it is extended with blanks or truncated as required.
"string"
A string of characters enclosed in quotation marks. Blanks are permitted
in the enclosed string. If you want to document a name (label) in your
program, use this form.
Note: RESOURCE_NAME on ADD_SUSPEND supplies a default value which
is used if RESOURCE_NAME is not specified on a SUSPEND call.
RESOURCE_TYPE(name8 | string | "string")
specifies an 8-character string that can be used to document and trace the
resource involved in suspend and resume processing. You cannot use register
notation to specify the address of the string.
name8
The name of the location where an 8-byte value is stored.
string A string of characters without intervening blanks; if it is not 8 bytes long,
it is extended with blanks or truncated as required.
"string"
A string of characters enclosed in quotation marks. Blanks are permitted
in the enclosed string. If you want to document a name (label) in your
program, use this form.
Note: RESOURCE_TYPE on ADD_SUSPEND supplies a default value which
is used if RESOURCE_TYPE is not specified on a SUSPEND call.
SUSPEND_TOKEN(name4 | (Rn))
returns a token assigned by the system to identify the SUSPEND/RESUME pair
of operations used on the task.
